Even though the resorts haven’t had quite the right temps to open yet, there are still plenty of Minnesota events to keep your stoke up. This weekend you can head up to Forest Lake and check out a bungee rail jam at the FL Project. The jam will start at 2pm on Sunday (October 18th) and there will be an entry fee of $15. Please pre-register if you can at FL Project to be guaranteed a spot. Look for pics after the jam on rideMinnesota.com.
I’m sure plenty of you were excited this morning when you woke up to a nice covering of the white stuff. The couple inches of snow this morning was exactly what we needed to get even more stoked about the new snow season to come. Get those boards and skis waxed up and keep checking the site to see which resort opens first. Trollhaugen and Wild Mountain have already started making snow but the forecast doesn’t look great for progress. Keep your fingers crossed for colder temps and tell those complainers to move somewhere else… Enjoy the picture of snowy runs courtesy of Welch Village.

The FL Project is in need of one more design for their back to school 2009 line up. Now is your chance to put the pen to the paper or murder out a design on your computer. You are in full graphic control, if you want to use the shop name in your design go for it, if not no worries they will add one on the sleeve or back print. All entries need to be in by 8pm on July 30th. Winner will be announced on or before the 10th of August.
If you haven’t quite had enough of snowboarding for the year, be sure to check out the upcoming spring rail jams at Spirit Mountain and Wild Mountain. Starting this weekend on Saturday May 9th you can head up to Duluth and check out the annual Damage Revisted Rail Jam hosted by Damage Boardshop. Then the following Saturday after that, cruise north to Wild Mountain for their 2nd annual AmThrash Spring Rail Jam. Check out the events section of the site for more details.
